Probably dreaming.  They'd do it if it can make them more money (for 
example by not affecting HP-UX sales, and boosting HP Linux sales, or if 
boost in HP Linux sales would outweight loss of HP-UX sales).  If they 
release TruCluster and advfs as open source, you don't need to buy HP 
Linux (just use any-Linux).  So you have something you can't tie your 
customers with, and is concurent to your (other) comercial products.
